With Leather’s Watch This: Miami’s Local News Called Heat Fans Idiots For Leaving Early
As someone who has a standing rule to leave all Orlando Magic games with two minutes left to beat the slow jerkwads down the escalators, I understand that people want to dip out a little earlier than the rest of the mob. But if you just paid at least three digits to see your team play in the NBA Finals and they’re not losing by at least 10 with no less than 15 seconds left, then...
Tracy McGrady Vs. Arby’s. No, Seriously. Who Ya Got?
You’d think upgrading from the Qingdao Eagles to the San Antonio Spurs bench would be an improvement, but nope, Tracy McGrady’s career has hit rock bottom. How do I know? Because Arby’s is throwing shade at him on the Internet. Arby’s.Twitter user @DragonflyJonez made a joke about T-Mac and mentioned Arby’s. I guess the Arby’s Twitter Team is searching for “Arby’s”...
LeBron James And A Brief History Of People Who Became Greater With #NoHeadband
At some point during the chaos of the Miami Heat’s incredibly perseverant, come-from-behind 103-100 OT Game 6 victory over the San Antonio Spurs last night, something magical happened – LeBron James lost his trademark headband. Of course, people lost their sh*t over this, because the Internet is full of people who believe in superstition and mystical powers provided by fuzzy...
Vintage Promos: If You Move, Thunderbolt Patterson Will … Something
Vintage Promos is a series looking back at the best, worst and most memorable pro wrestling interviews of all time. It previously appeared on AOL FanHouse.In the last installment of Vintage Promos, you met The Antichrist, a Mexican pro wrestler who had trouble explaining who he is (and how much he hates God) because of a language barrier. I’m, uh, assuming. You get the impression...

Jack Hoffman Continues To Live the Baller College Football Star Lifestyle
Jack Hoffman is one of With Leather's (and everybody else's) favorite people.If you don't recognize the name, he's the 7-year old brain cancer patient who ran for a 69-yard touchdown during the Nebraska Cornhuskers’ recent spring game. He’s been a celebrity ever since, getting his own Upper Deck card and hanging out (and assumedly talking health care reform)...
Dan Cortese, Daisy Fuentes Took Us Back To The 90s With Some NBA Finals Trash Talk
Last night’s Game 6 of the NBA Finals was an instant classic for a number of reasons, from Tim Duncan bathing and frolicking in the Fountain of Youth and LeBron James unlocking “Kiss My Ass” mode in the fourth quarter to Manu Ginobili’s “Go home, you’re drunk” style and Miami Heat fans, well, just going home before the 4th quarter was over. But you clearly watched all...
John Oliver Is Using His ‘Daily Show’ Host Duties To Start Beef With WWE’s Zeb Colter
I’m a big fan of John Oliver taking over the hosting duties on ‘The Daily Show With Jon Stewart’ for several reasons … he’s funny, he’s a nice change of pace from Stewart’s regular routines, and he’s a reminder of when ‘Community’ was a good show. On top of that, there’s the joy of discovery, watching him figure out some of the finer points of sharing news clips...
Manu Ginobili’s Game 6 No-Call, As Called By Don Draper (And The Morning Links)
Oh, EDSBS. You’ve managed to encapsulate everything a bystander needs to know about Game 6 of the NBA Finals in a Vine that is only 2/3 basketball. I will never again be able to see Manu Ginobili without hearing that noise. Game 7, here we come.(Spoiler alert: Tim Duncan’s been dead all season.)- Follow us on Twitter @withleather - Follow me personally @MrBrandonStroud and...
With Leather’s Watch This: The Mets And Cubs Are Partly To Blame For Society’s Downfall
I think Bob Costas is just trying to be cute and sarcastic in this clip from Sunday’s U.S. Open Championship coverage, when he took a break to recap the bottom dweller classic between the New York Mets and the Chicago Cubs. The Mets scored four runs in the bottom of the 9th to pull off the walkoff win, but Costas referred to their celebration as further evidence of the decline...
Tuukka Rask Ain’t Care About The FCC
The Boston Bruins decided to put an end to the Stanley Cup Finals’ perfect run of overtime games last night with a 2-0 win over the Chicago Blackhawks in Game 3. If you were hoping for a third OT experience in as many games, then you have Bruins goalie Tuukka Rask to thank for that with his 28 saves on 28 shots. Come on, Rask, nobody likes a perfect goalie.But Rask was far from...
It’s All Fun And Games Until A Little Kid Starts Crying At The College World Series
While Mississippi State was putting the finishing touches on a come-from-behind 5-4 win over Indiana at the College World Series in Omaha, one family was making a memory that would last a lifetime as a young girl proudly snagged herself her very first foul ball. Of course, the problem with bringing kids to the ballpark is that if one kid gets something, the others soon become jealous...
Funny Or Die’s ‘LeBron James – It’s In My Blood’ Is Perfect, Features Dog Flopping
LeBron lives the way he plays… with similar results.Tonight is Game 6 of the NBA Finals, and if I were a betting man who has watched basketball ever I’d assume Miami would take it and force a Game 7.To celebrate, here is Funny Or Die’s ‘LeBron James – It’s In My Blood,’ a celebration of King James’ unshakable desire for championship greatness and/or his ability to...
Let’s Watch A Suicidal Idiot/Parkour Genius Run Up A Hill Of Molten Lava
Here’s a guy running up an incline plane of flowing lava, because sometimes YOLO stands for “I’m about to die, so make sure you get it on camera.”A “lava art craft worker” runs through a streaming lava flow on Mount Etna. Not recommended for imitation! The worker was very experienced and knew what he was doing.Hopefully “knew what he was doing” includes “has a good...
The Miami Dolphins Cheerleaders Made A Video Set To Taylor Swift’s 22
Last year, the Miami Dolphins cheerleaders were a huge driving force behind everyone and their mothers making those “Call Me Maybe” videos that totally never got old at all. So how, then, would the wonderfully talented Dolphins ladies top that for an encore in 2013? By lip syncing to another ridiculously catchy pop song that gets stuck in my brain every other day – “22...

I’m sure every rugby hit is the hardest rugby hit ever, but I’m officially giving the title of Rugby Jadeveon Clowney to St. Paul’s collegiate student Ruslan Casey.

With Leather’s Watch This: A Russian Dog Really Doesn’t Want A Bath, Comrades
And here I thought that my dog acted ridiculous when I tell her it’s time for a bath. This Russian dog is not having any of this Boris or Ivan and his jibber jabber about hygiene.At least I think this is about that dog not wanting a bath. I pray that’s what it’s about.MLB: Cubs at Cardinals – 7 PM ET on ESPNThe Cards return home with a small lead for the best record in baseball...
WWE Raw 6/17/13 Open Discussion Thread: ITT, AJ Lee Represents Me Watching Raw
Tonight, on the With Leather WWE Raw open discussion thread:Last night’s three-hour slugfest was colloquially known as WWE Payback, but retribution may yet be waiting for a trio of Superstars who brazenly relieved incumbent champions of their titles in Chicago’s Allstate Arena. Chief among those is, of course, Alberto Del Rio, who took advantage of Dolph Ziggler’s lingering...
An Ode To Billy Horschel’s Octopus Pants
Prior to this past weekend’s U.S. Open Championship, I’d never heard of Billy Horschel and even then I was only able to learn that he is “some dude from UF”, per one of my more tuned-in PGA fan friends. However, Horschel quickly became a household name yesterday, but not because he played smart and tough enough to finish tied for fourth. It’s because he wore a pair of pants...
Here Is A List Of Every Synonym For “Pass” That Doc Emrick Used In Game 1 Of The Stanley Cup Finals
Way, way, way back on Wednesday, June 12, the NHL hosted Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals between the Boston Bruins and Chicago Blackhawks, and after what felt like an eternity, the ‘Hawks wrapped up a 4-3 triple overtime victory. Obviously, that’s a lot of action for any announcer to handle without sounding repetitive and unoriginal, but fortunately for hockey fans and NBC,...

VH1′s ‘Hit The Floor’ Looks Pretty Interesting
As much as I watch and overanalyze television, I had no clue that VH1 still produced original series, let alone scripted dramas and not hokey reality series about musicians you’ve never heard of (although Bands Reunited was one of the greatest TV shows of any kind in the history of the medium, but that’s another discussion for another UPROXX site). So imagine my surprise when...

This week, This Week In Horrible-Looking People leaves the world of embarrassing promo photos behind long enough to focus on the glorious pro wrestling trading cards of the early 90s, specifically WWF trading cards from 1992.
